Well, for those of you who have a Treo 650 and have been watching the rumors of the "Treo 670", it looks like it may be a Treo 700:

It's actually a 700w, with the "w" likely referring to the fact that it runs Windows Mobile, and also implying there still may be a Treo 700p running PalmOS.
And yes, this is real: remember, Palm (formerly PalmOne) split from PalmSource to separate the hardware and software pieces, so Palm can certainly run Windows Mobile on their products, and it looks like they may be doing just that.
I wouldn't mind trying a Windows Mobile Treo, but only if it paired with the E60...has anyone been able to get Windows Mobile phones paired yet?

Windows Mobile will pair with E60 bluetooth..... but it won't work, other than as a headset. (ie no phonebook, voice dial, or dial from car)

I saw the press release yesterday.
Honestly, I like the Palm OS.
It works with most of what I am using now.
Going back to "windows" will F'me up.
Looks like I may be sticking with my 650 for a while.
